"So Jesus was the big sacrifice..."

We had a great girls Bible study here at our apartment tonight. We are taking the girls through the book of John. In chapter one tonight, we talked about how the "Word became flesh" that the "Word" refers to who God is. (Hence the Cap letters.) Later, John the Baptist gives his famous line " Look, the lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world!" We talked about how at this time the people would sacrifice a lamb for their sins. But this was John's way of preparing the way...to elude more/less that of what was going to happen. Melissa always says the best lines. The ones that make me proud--like, Oh! You were listening. At the very end, she said tonight... "So Jesus was the big sacrifice that they are talking about!?" EXACTLY!
